[User Guide/On-line Help]

1. The user guide and on-line help are writtern in HTML format. Before you
    can read these electric documents, you should installed a web browser,
    such as Netscape or Internet Explorer.
2. You can download the Netscape on the WWW site:
         http:\\home.netscape.com,
    or Internet   Explorer on the site:
         http:\\home.microsoft.com
3. Use a display resolution of 800 x 600 with Internet Explorer 3.0/Netscape 3.0
   or higher versions for the best rendition of our WebPages.

[Network Scan Notes]
1. Under certain conditions, the NetHeapSize in Windows must be reset to
    a larger value.  Please use the value suggested by Windows.
2. Both the server and client require a NETBIOS driver loaded before scanning
   (for example, NETBIOS.EXE in Novell Netware).
3. The Scanner Test program can only test the local scanner. It cannot test
   the network scanner.


[Troubleshooting]
1. SCSI Scanner ONLY!!
   When this message "Memory Allocate Error!" appears, the driver will
   modify the UMAXDRV.INI file located in the Windows directory. By rebooting
   the Windows environment, the driver should work fine. If there is any
   problem and you need to go back to the original status, use a text editor
   to modify the UMAXDRV.INI file. The content of UMAXDRV.INI should look
   like that shown below:

           [UMAX_Drivers]
           DriverType=UMAXASPI

           [UMAX_SCSI]
           InterfaceType=ASPI Compatible
           VxDAllocateMemory=1

   The driver will have changed the "VxDAllocateMemory" value to 1.
   Change the value back to 0 to restore the original value.

Note: If you have a previously loaded UMAXMEM.SYS driver in CONFIG.SYS file, please remove it.
      There is no need for the UMAXMEM.SYS driver if "VxDAllocateMemory=1".
      This entry will accomplish the same thing as the UMAXMEM.SYS driver.

2. If the NETBIOS error message "ncb_bridge field not 00 or 01" appears, you
   must run network setup to select a NETBIOS driver such as NETBEUI or
   NETBIOS over ipx/spx to the default protocol for both the server and the
   client. In both Windows 3.1 and Windows 95, network setup is located in
   the Control Panel.
